Update on Derby Santa Fun Run

Dear Santas,

We were really sad and disappointed to have had to cancel Sunday’s event at Elvaston Castle on ‘elf’ and safety grounds – and, despite our very best efforts, we are sadly unable to offer an alternative date. But we know the festive spirit of our amazing supporters is not so easily defeated…

We’d still love you to do something fun and amazing for Rainbows this festive season by getting your friends and family together at a date and venue of your choice for your very own Rainbows Santa Fun Run! We’ll even post out your Santa outfits and medals so you’re fully kitted out for the day!

Simply email fundraising@rainbows.co.uk, let us know the full names of everyone who had signed up to take part and when you’re arranging your event and we’ll get your packs sent out (within 3 – 5 working days). Please let us know by Friday 15 December if you want your Santa suits and medals to arrive before Christmas.

We’d love to see your photos too! So make sure you post them on our Facebook event page, tag us in and use #SantaSelfie

Alternatively, if you feel the spirit of Christmas is best served by magically transforming your registration fee into a donation for youngsters with life-limiting conditions, let us know. Your gift will help put smiles on faces over the festive season and the year ahead.

Or we can refund your registration fee, please let us know by Friday 15 December to confirm this.

Please let us know your preferred decision by email on fundraising@rainbows.co.uk by Friday 15 December. Please include your full name and details.

Whatever your decision, we thank you for your ongoing support to Rainbows and wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

Kind regards

The Rainbows Events Team
